Chapter 5 What is called human life?
Originally, Wang Shengjun's defeat had been revealed, and when he saw Liao Hua's whole army charging again, they ran away one by one.
"Hurry up, Mingjin retreats." Duan Shi saw that his troops were scattered and defeated, and Wang Sheng, who was arrogant and sworn in front of him at the beginning, lost his armor and was embarrassed, and jumped straight to his feet on the Yuyuan Pass in a hurry, and the fat on his face was like a pinball, constantly shaking up and down......
"Kill." Wen hired hundreds of healthy soldiers to chase after him.
"Drop the fence for me, quick." Seeing that the Wancheng army was about to rush into the pass with the defeated army, Duan Shi jumped up and down and roared angrily. The fat body arches everywhere like a white pig.
There were two loud bangs, and the heavy wooden door of the level slowly began to close.
"The general closes the city gate slowly, his subordinates haven't come in yet."
"Fast forward ahead."
"General, let us in."
"General help."
"Open the door."
All kinds of crying fathers and shouting mothers insulting Duan style voices rose and fell with each other, the checkpoint was as noisy as a vegetable market, and the soldiers slammed the door hard, while watching the Wancheng soldiers who were advancing more and more, anxious.
Duan Shi's order didn't care about the life or death of the soldiers outside the checkpoint, and he didn't care about them kneeling and begging for mercy.
"Crossbowman, shoot hard at General Ben."
Duan Shi made a hand gesture on the upper floor.
"Whoosh" countless arrows and crossbow arrows flew over like locusts, densely packed.
Wen Ping's face changed, and he yelled urgently: "All squat, the shield soldiers forward." At the same time, he danced the big sword impenetrable.
As soon as Wen Ping's voice ended, there were seventy or eighty sword and shield soldiers among the hundreds of foot soldiers, brushing and holding high, covering the sky. The spearmen below crouched down smartly, trying their best to shrink behind the shield soldiers.
"Tuk Tuk" countless bows and arrows nailed to the shield, and the powerful falling momentum of the arrows shook the shield soldiers' hands numb.
"Ahh Dozens of Wancheng soldiers, though cautious, did not avoid being harmed.
There were three waves of arrows in a row, and the Wancheng soldiers were almost unable to raise their heads.
The number of casualties began to rise slowly.
"Wooden Bone Shield." Liao Hua was ready to respond as early as he saw Wen Ping chasing after him. At this time, as soon as he reached within 100 meters of the level, he roared. Behind Liao Hua, a row of ten soldiers suddenly appeared, divided into three teams. Each team was divided into groups of two, and together they raised a total of fifteen large and somewhat unusual shields, and kept shouting and advancing, obviously with some difficulty.
This huge shield is a man and a half high, the inside is made of cooked cowhide, the outside is all made of good Ito calcination, and the middle is wrapped in a layer of iron juice, the defense is extremely amazing, even a simple bed crossbow, if it is a hundred paces away, it is difficult to penetrate its defenses. Moreover, there is also a movable plate buckle in the middle of this shield, so that the soldiers can observe the outside situation at any time. Of course, this is also He Chen's idea, which comes from the explosion-proof shield inside the line of fire. Of course, there is a world of difference in materials, but even so, it is not easy to make such a big shield, and the practical surname is very simple, so there is not much preparation.
Due to the narrow intersection of the checkpoint and the slope, once the fifteen bone shields were propped up, it was like covering the sky and the ground, covering the sky of the Wancheng soldiers, and the power of the arrows was greatly reduced.
The generals on the level were dumbfounded, is this a shield or a door panel? Never heard of such a big shield?
"The sassal rolling stone is ready to be placed." Duan Shi, who came back to his senses, shouted without thinking about it.
"General, there's our foot soldiers down there." Ichisho reminded with some hesitation.
"Those cowardly and afraid of death will die sooner or later." Duan Shi's face darkened, and he said angrily.
"The general still thinks twice." That general is still a little unbearable.
"Who's in charge? Is it up to you or General Ben to have the final say? The fat of the section trembled everywhere, and the little bean's eyes shot a cruel light, which made the general dare not look directly.
"Wood Rolling Stone Preparation." The impatient general raised the flag with an unkind face.
"Boom." When the soldiers at the checkpoint heard this order, they were in despair, and they were stunned for a while when they saw the almina pumice stones piled up step by step. Only a few clever soldiers clinged to the walls of the city, eager to melt into the walls. Hopefully it will be spared.
Wen Ping's eyes were sharp, and at a glance, he saw that the soldiers at the checkpoint were struggling to lift cedar trees, pumice stones and other objects, his face changed slightly, and the materials were well prepared, and the road was long and narrow, once they were allowed to throw these things down, the lethality was extremely terrifying, and his team was afraid that they would be wiped out at the first time. When the editor hired without hesitation, he shouted: "Retire quickly." ”
Almost at the same time, He Chen, who was at the rear of the battlefield, also saw that something was wrong with the situation, and hurriedly asked the morale to withdraw the troops.
The Wancheng soldiers are indeed well-trained, and after hearing the voice, even at such a moment of racing against time, they are also orderly, fast and not chaotic, and there are not too many things that have happened in the chaos of the formation.
"Want to run? That's that easy. Release. Duan Shi's face was full of hideousness.
"Hey." Finally, in the joint push of the soldiers, several sections of heavy wood and a few large stones turned over the battlements.
"Boom."
"Ahh "Nope." "Don't." As the black shadows in the sky grew sharply, the sound of despair resounded through the gates.
Bursts of miserable screams came and went, and the soldiers under the city did not escape the catastrophe, and were crushed to death by the high altitudes of sassal wood, pumice stones, etc., some were crushed into meat cakes on the spot, some were lucky to break their legs and hands, and more were crying, and their desolate screams, even the people above the checkpoint were moved to hide their hearts.
After the trees and rocks fell, the city was in a mess, and it was really blurred and miserable. And the Wancheng soldiers saw the opportunity early, and they had already exhausted their feeding strength, and ran away for their lives. Just looking at the speed of this frame, in modern times, you can also participate in the domestic 100-meter sprint. But even so, there were a few soldiers who were left behind who were unfortunately hit by the "booming" stones and logs, and they were killed and wounded.
Seeing that the Wancheng soldiers retreated, the guards of Yuyuan Pass hurriedly lowered the gate, but at this time, there was a dead silence outside the checkpoint, dozens of soldiers were almost killed and wounded, and the soldiers who were lucky enough to escape from death were also numb and dull, obviously unable to accept the scene of being killed by their own people.
He Chen counted afterwards that hundreds of people had been injured and more than 30 people had been killed.
This made his expression gloomy and dripping water, which was really disadvantageous. There is no doubt that after a short trial in the morning, although the combat strength of the guards of Yuyuan Pass is average, the level is very well prepared, and the terrain is dangerous, which can be described as stable. If you launch a strong attack, you can only use the tactics of adding fuel to the danger of the terrain, and you can only use the tactics of adding fuel to the pile of human lives. But in this way, it is in the hands of the enemy, and the soldiers are used to test how many reserves of stones and wood the opponent has? He Chen's head was not so funny. If you can't attack it, you can only start from other aspects.
On the one hand, He Chen waited for Hou Yanming's news, and on the other hand, spies came out to find the mountain and ask for directions, hoping to find a shortcut to the mountain.
Night.
More than 20 miles away from Yuyuan Pass, He Chen's military camp is stationed here.
Here by the mountains and rivers, the terrain is open, the line of sight is excellent, as long as the sentry tower Yantai is placed on the top of the mountain, you can see it at a glance. Most of the time, the matter of choosing a camp and Anzhai is handled by Wenpin, and to be honest, He Chen is really not good at this kind of thing.
At this time, the torches in Dazhai were like stars, and the neatly clad soldiers were patrolling back and forth, with meticulous expressions.
In the Chinese army's big village, the lights were bright, and He Chengling was also thinking hard, looking at him with a sad face, obviously dying a lot of brain cells.
When he was at a loss for words, a soldier came in.
"City Order, the Yan guards are back, and he also brought someone over."
"Yan Ming is back? Soon, please. He Chen was overjoyed.
